Wait, what's wrong with VW?

[–] pmmeyourtits@ani.social 0 points 5 months ago

VW does parts pairing. It resulted in me having to get a new vehicle when my steering wheel controls and air ag stopped functioning. Turns out you have to program the clockspring with the old clockspring and bringing it to VW resulted in a 350$ charge for them to say "we can't fix this".

Fuck VW.
